Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled Airline and
Traveler Information Collection:
Domestic Manifests and the Passenger
Locator Form (42 CFR parts 70 and 71)
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval. CDC
previously published a ‘‘Proposed Data
Collection Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations’’
notice on November 4, 2019 to obtain
comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC did not receive comments
related to the previous notice. This
notice serves to allow an additional 30
days for public and affected agency
comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570.
Comments and recommendations for the
proposed information collection should
be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/
do/PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. Direct written
comments and/or suggestions regarding
the items contained in this notice to the
Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of
Management and Budget, 725 17th
Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by
fax to (202) 395–5806. Provide written
comments within 30 days of notice
publication.
Proposed Project
Airline and Traveler Information
Collection: Domestic Manifests and the
Passenger Locator Form (OMB Control
No. 0920–1181, Exp. 05/31/2020)—
Revision—Division of Global Migration
and Quarantine (DGMQ), National
Center for Emerging Zoonotic and
Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Stopping a communicable disease
outbreak—whether it is naturally
occurring or intentionally caused—
requires the use of the most rapid and
effective public health tools available.
Basic public health practices, such as
collaborating with airlines in the
identification and notification of
potentially exposed contacts, are critical
tools in the fight against the
introduction, transmission, and spread
of communicable diseases in the United
States.
The collection of timely, accurate, and
complete contact information enables
Quarantine Public Health Officers in
CDC’s Division of Global Migration and
Quarantine (DGMQ) to notify state and
local health departments in order for
them to make contact with individuals
who may have been exposed to a
contagious person during travel and
identify appropriate next steps. In order
to collect this contact information, aka
a manifest, CDC is seeking approval for
domestic airline and traveler
information orders under current
authorities in 42 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) 70.10. This activity is
already current practice.
CDC also requests continued approval
to use the Passenger Locator Form (PLF)
for the collection of traveler information
from individuals on domestic flights
and international flights under 42 CFR
70.10 and 42 CFR 71.20, respectively.
The PLF, a formed developed by the
International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO) in concert with its
international member states and other
aviation organizations, is used when
there is a confirmation or strong
suspicion that an individual(s) aboard a
flight is infected with or exposed to a
communicable disease that is a threat to
co-travelers, and CDC is made aware of
the individual(s) prior to arrival in the
United States. This prior awareness can
provide CDC with an opportunity to
collect traveler contact information
directly from the traveler prior to
departure from the arrival airport.
CDC estimates that for each set of
airline and traveler information ordered,
airlines require approximately six hours
to review the order, search their records,
and send those records to CDC. CDC
anticipates that travelers will need
approximately five minutes to complete
the PLF. There is no cost to respondents
other than their time perform these
actions. For manifest information, CDC
does not have a specified format for
these submissions, only that it is one
acceptable to both CDC and the
respondent. The total number of hours
requested as part of this 225,734.

ACTION:
Notice with comment period.
The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of
its continuing effort to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies the opportunity to comment on
a proposed and/or continuing
information collection, as required by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
This notice invites comment on a
proposed information collection project
titled ‘‘Leptospirosis and melioidosis
active hospital-based surveillance in
Puerto Rico.’’ The project aims to
identify leptospirosis and melioidosis

active surveillance for both diseases at
four hospital sites for timelier disease
identification and treatment and to
improve understanding of leptospirosis
and melioidosis epidemiology and
ecology in Puerto Rico for public health
control and prevention planning.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:

Background and Brief Description
The project aims to identify
leptospirosis and melioidosis cases in

surveillance for both diseases at four
hospital sites for timelier disease
identification and treatment and to
improve understanding of leptospirosis
and melioidosis epidemiology and

diseases can cause outbreaks after
hurricanes and flooding, especially in
tropical areas, and this project is being
conducted in response to an increase in
leptospirosis cases after Hurricanes Irma
and Maria in 2017.
Participation is voluntary.
Participants will be recruited from the

Proposed Project
